Magpie
Tabbed by: rristuccia@yahoo.com

This song is pretty simple, but you can play it with a lot of different strumming 
 Listen to the recording to get the feel for how John plays it.

Intro: Am G F Am

Am                        G
feed the kittens in the kitchen.

F                     Am
set food out for the strays.

Am                   G
try hard to do your best.

F                          Am
the magpie will have his way.

fill your mouth with berries
by the full light of the moon.
work all night if you have to.
the magpie comes at noon.

Bridge: (with a somewhat more aggressive strumming pattern) Am G F Am
